The essence of this paper is to introduce the notion of pseudo ?-open sets and pseudo ?-closed sets. More results on compactness, co compactness, ?- compactness and ?-cocompactness in ditopological texture spaces are analysed. Many effective characterizations and properties of these concepts are also obtained.

Taming information and communication technologies (ICTs) for eBanking is one of the contemporary challenges confronted by the financial and banking sector. Given that, the development of necessary management skills to ensure the sustained success the new processes are very indispensable. Globally, the banking industry is increasingly getting turbulent and competitive, characterized by internationalization, mergers, takeovers and consolidation of the banks. Several non-banking companies are entering eBanking through their financial products and services thereby giving the customers a list of options to choose banking services. Thus, a strong banking industry has become very important for every country for supporting economic development through efficient financial services. In this regard, rigorous research is undergoing all over the World to successfully implement eBanking. This research is mainly focused on identifying the factors which may affect the Customer-acceptance of eBanking in Dera Ismail Khan, KPK, Pakistan.

The Indian retailing industry is becoming intensely competitive as more and as more players are vying for the same set of customers. The new entrant in retailing in India signifies the beginning of retail revolution. India’s retail market is expected to grow tremendously in next few years. The window of opportunity is useful for executives who plan their market specific strategy. Wal-Mart heads Fortune magazine list of top 500 companies in the world. Retailing in India is gaining attention like never before. Organized retailing especially is creating euphoria amongst Indian consumers drawing them into malls and trade areas in huge numbers. Retailers are offering newer service dimensions to create unique shopping experiences for the customers. However, whether consumers are able to perceive newer service dimensions and getting affected for store patronage in new store formats or not, remains to be found out. Store image is a critical component in store choice and store loyalty. Perceptions about stores are driven substantially by tangible characteristics of stores, such as format or list size, distance of store from home, as well as intangible factors like the environment of the store. The fact that Indian retail environment is going through a change due to the introduction of new formats and opening up of retail industry, it becomes important to understand the customer attitude here. Attitude of the consumer are vary from person to person. In this research helps to find out to measure attitude of the customers towards organized retailing. By measuring the customer attitude, the CENTRAL MADURAI is chosen for sampling area. Structured questionnaire was framed and data was collected from 120 samples. By analyzing the data SPSS16.0 (statistical package for social sciences) were used. The statistical tools like chi-square, frequency analysis, Factor Analysis and One Way ANOVA for interpreting the data.

This paper presents wireless ad hoc network which communicate with each other by forming a multi-hop radio network and maintaining connectivity in a decentralized manner. The principle behind ad hoc networking is multi-hop relaying, which means that the messages are transmitted by the other nodes if the target node is not directly reachable. For communications with the nodes which are not within the radio range of nodes to the route must be taken from the intermediate nodes to reach the destination. These intermediate nodes acts as router which receives the data coming from the source and forwards the data to destination This situation is of potential security concern as there can be attack possible by the intermediate node like Man in Middle Attack. Hence an authentication procedure is be used for authenticating the mobile nodes to each other and proper encryption decryption mechanisms is also employed. Also intermediate nodes can act as malicious nodes which must be removed or alternate route should be found which does not include nodes already used in previous route. Thus we have developed architecture will provide secure routing mechanism which will use two kinds of encryption techniques. Then the possible attacks are being analyzed and removed from the architecture.

The paper seeks to investigate the risk factor associated with indoor air pollution in low income households. Cooking with traditional fuels leads to high levels of indoor air pollution expose of which increase the risk of various health problems health problems. The present study is based on the collect information on socio-economic condition, types of chulla used, its location, types of fuel, fuel sources and health consequences in the rural area of Muzaffarnagar and Bagpat district of Uttar Pradesh. The study provides the overview of the relation between indoor air pollution (IPA), traditional cooking stove, fuel used, literacy, health and economic well being. The result shows that most of income households were using traditional fuels and stoves, cooking in multipurpose room and veranda in poorly ventilated cooking places and taking long hours for cooking. The study points to the need of creating awareness amongst low income households.

Tri-ethylene (TEG) is used to inhibit the formation of natural gas hydrates in long transportation pipelines that convey gas from remote gas field to processing units. The degradation of glycol leads to its decomposition and reduction of its pH making it more acidic thereby, increasing its tendency to cause corrosion and subsequent blockage of production and transportation facilities. The possible effect of water on tri-ethylene glycol was ascertained in terms of changes in viscosity, pH, density and efflux time as table 1to4.Thus, the resulting effect of water on glycols (TEG) is high at room temperature and low at frozen temperature as was observed in terms of pH, viscosity and efflux time of the mixture.

Mathematical software (R-software) plays major role to develop science and technology in this world. In this papers we discuss about the correlation with the help of secondary data (Pima) is collected from 784 women.

The presence of excessive amount of fluoride in bore wells and drinking water causes dental fluorosis, mottling of teeth etc. Ground water contains fluoride ions dissolved from geological formations. The presence of low concentrations or absence of fluoride in water results in a high incidence of dental caries in children’s teeth. Therefore the concentration of fluoride should be within permissible limit as prescribed by various organizations such as ICMR, WHO, BIS etc. Hence, it becomes very important to analyze the fluoride in the water of bore-wells for used drinking purpose. In the present study, fluoride content has assessed by standard analytical procedures and found in the range 0.008 to 0.615 ppm at different sampling stations of Azamgarh city during Jan 2012 to July2012.

The combine performance characteristics are related to threshing ability, the minimum amount of loss and fuel consumption. Loss is the most important of these factors. Material threshing is one of processes which have more effect on combine performance. Threshing efficiency has been inversely associated with threshing loss. It is desired to maximize threshing efficiency in threshing mechanism, because it will decrease the load of separation and cleaning mechanisms, which lead to reduction of separation system losses. Stem height, feed rate, threshing clearance ratio and rotational speed of threshing cylinder are operation parameters, which are used in combine design and its performance evaluating. In order to evaluate effect of these parameters on threshing material, experiments were conducted in 4×3×3 factorial pattern with Randomize Blocks design. Material threshing was considered as a dependent variable. These experiments were done on 68’s Sahand combine harvester. Results were analyzed in Neurosolutions 5.0 software. Multilayer Perceptron with four inputs and one output, with a different number of neurons in hidden layer, was used to estimate the amount of material threshing. Results showed that a network with 21 neurons in hidden layer had minimum MSE with R2=0.9. Furthermore, results showed that the amount of material threshing had dependent on stem height, threshing clearance ratio, speed of threshing cylinder and feed rate, respectively. Material threshing was increased with reduction in stem height, feed rate, threshing clearance ratio and speed up of threshing cylinder.

This study aims at assessing the compatibility of critical success factors in new products developments with structural variables of various sports manufacturing industries in Tehran. Use of a descriptive correlational study, 80 employees and managers of various sports manufacturing companies in Tehran were totally examined, 70 of which delivered the completely filled-in questionnaires. After the approval of validity and reliability of researcher-made questionnaire, data were collected. The results revealed that indices of NPD's critical factors are able to predict structural variables, and critical success factors of new products have positive and significant relationships with structural variables. Finally, it can be said that the research model consists of optimal independent variables (critical factors in new product development) and dependent variables (structural variables), and the set of independent variables are able to explain changes in structural variables. The sport industry was ranked twenty-third with an income equivalent to 50.2 billion dollars in 1987, and after ten years in 1997 it attained the rank of eleventh with an income equivalent to 152 billion dollars. In 1999, it reached 213 billion dollars and the sports.
